There's zero proof we will be gutted as an agency.

It's much more likely we get absorbed by CBP and become a part of them. That way they get a large number of officers to bolster their numbers and we may get newer uniforms.

And even if we were on the chopping block, the Department of Education is up first as is the IRS. We will be fine for 4 years.

You don’t think they can fuck over more than one agency at a time?

It is more likely that you will be privatized than absorbed by the CBP. Remember, Trump and Musk want smaller government - privatizing TSA gets rid of 45000 Feds immediately.

Remember, TSA die not exist due to law. TSAs existence is based on a footnote in ATSA. Of all agencies, TSA is the easiest to get rid of.
